Some day you may come to realize the little bubble you live in is a fabrication. Probably not though. One of the things that set Koreans apart form Chinese and Japanese is how many of them are christians and as we all know, christians loathe self realization outside of their own little make-beleive world.

I'm so sorry!! You didn't answer 3/4 of my arguments and started fabricating ridiculous stories to back up your toothless points, so I thought you were no longer in a mood for serious debate!

The fact that the majority of the comments here, as well as the original Economist article, agrees with my arguments should indicate, even to your thick skull, that you're the one trapped in your own little revisionist world. I'd suggest that you take a careful look at where you stand. Go back to school, finish that degree that you never completed... I don't know, do something to educate yourself.

You're only embarrassing yourself further with every word that you spout. For your own dignity, stop while you can still see some light from the hole you've dug yourself into.

It's okay. Judging by the level of knowledge in your comments, I don't expect you to appreciate the meaning of a good college education.

However, while you were beating off to perverted manga about Japanese soldiers raping Korean women (which probably deluded you into thinking that you were "married" to a Korean woman in the first place, you sicko) and learning false Korean history from reading Manga Kenkanryu, I've been collaborating with world-renowned professors to do meaningful work for Korea. This means that as my career progresses, my words and actions will help spread the truth about Japan, while your useless mind, along with your revisionist Japanese views, will rot in a dingy room full of hentai.

"And if the "Chinese and Koreans both have inferiority complexes when it comes to the Japanese", how dare they expect that the "Japanese should bow down, kiss their feet, beg for forgiveness"? Ask those Japanese who worship, and feel inferior to, their emperor and see if they dare to expect that the Japanese emperor "should bow down, kiss their feet, beg for forgiveness". Do you know how to maintain the coherence of your thought over a span of just 2 sentences?"

No, but I can see clearly YOUR superiority complex and that of the right-wing Japanese.

["The real issue here is that the right-wing Japanese keep pricking at the old wounds-- by openly and officially worshipping war criminals of WWII-- and do not allow them to heal."

Wrong, sorry. It's not up to the Japanese to decide how or when others heal.]

The right-wing Japanese have certainly decided not to allow the wounds of the "others" to heal and make sure that they can't.

["Sensible Japanese have long proposed separating the war criminals and ordinary Japanese victims of the war in different shrines. Japanese government officials can then pay respect to the genuine war dead (including the victims of the 2 A-Bombs) without offending their Asian neighbours. Can your Foolish head work out why the Japanese right-wing consistently refuse such a simple and honourable solution?"

Sensible according to whom?]

Not according to white racists, who think that they naturally occupy the top perch of the racial tree, followed by the honourary whites, with the rest at the bottom:

Most Japanese aware that the US friendship is a good thing because we have many common interests like peace and democracy. This is not true with China and we must build forces because China does. China have no real need of its large forces but they continue to increase with offensive weapons and it is upsetting to the region. We wonder if it us you intend to attack Comrade Genghis?

Thank you very much, Mr Jap-san. What you have said below proves beyond all doubt that you are indeed an honorary white. You talk like them, you think like them and you even love "peace" and "democracy" like them.

As a native of Japan, which had cause unbearable sufferings in all East Asia, and in China in particular, not that long ago you still don't know why China needs powerful armed forces? Even today, Japan has a navy several times more powerful than that of China's and they still choose to feel threatened by China, instead of the opposite. This is very typical "white-talk", Mr Jap-san.

There was a time in the eighties when Japan appeared to go out of its way to right the wrongs it had done (as well as the wrongs other people had done) and I was prepared to forget what they had done in China. Then come the nineties and the Japanese began to love peace and democracy the way the whites do. I have now learnt to detest them just as I had learnt to detest the whites (especially the Anglo-American kind).

One example that summarizes the Japanese honorary-white attitude was when North Korea tried to launch an experimental satellite, and the Jap-sans cried wolf. Yet, the Japs had already launched their own rockets and missiles and they already have the most powerful solid-fuelled rocket in the world. I don't want to speculate what they will do when they put into practice their already well-known ability to manufacture nuclear weapons. The Korean's (North and South) desire to possess missiles and nuclear weapons is understandable. What can they use to defend themselves otherwise if the Imperial Army of Japan come to demand half-a-million "comfort women" from them again?

If you still don't understand, Mr Jap-san, I can tell you why you are afraid of the Chinese and other Asians but feel so comfortable with you white "friendship". It is because the US arbitrarily interned the Japanese on the other side of the pond during the war and you people could do nothing about it. It is because they nuked you into submission even though you people did not make "comfort women" out of their women-folks.

THE ASIANS HAVE BEEN TOO FORGIVING WHEN IT COMES TO THE JAPS. That is why they receive contempt in return. How many Holocaust denial sites can you find on the web? That is because the Russians raped (literally) those Nazis until they came to their senses.

Mr Jap-san, all the other Asians are waiting for you to spread your "common interest" the way you did 60 years ago and then we can get the chance of bring you people to your senses the Russian way.

I feel sorry for you. You're no longer Korean but you don't feel American either. You seem to mask your insecurities with arrogance while trying to make an identity for yourself. That's why you confuse your opinion with fact and you cling so desperately to demanding yet more apologies from the Japanese, you think you're being Korean. And you think graduating from Stanford means something.

Prop yourself up, little boy, and live in your own little reality where you're more Korean than Koreans and more American than Americans. It's classic banana behaviour.
